Nick Nash, WR, San Jose State
How far under the radar should a 6-foot-2, 203-pound receiver who produced 104 receptions, 1,382 yards, and 16 touchdowns be? Nick Nash's career journey was fascinating after starting his career as a quarterback. He caught on more as a receiver in 2023 and quickly became a dangerous playmaker with his size and power.He's not an overly dynamic downfield threat, but he fits the profile of guys like Puka Nacua and Jaxon Smith-Njigba as bigger-bodied receivers who can win inside and out. Being a reliable big slot is incredibly valuable as offenses continue to embrace chess pieces that can stay on the field regardless of formation.
Nash's elite catch rate during the last two years (<6%), contested catch rate in 2024 (50%), and overall reliability make him the top Day 3 candidate to explode early in his career.
